 We are a network of Christians in the Roman Catholic tradition committed to:

  • prayer and self-discipline;
  • building community;
  • formation and education in faith;
  • social justice.
Hearts, minds and energy cannot be devoted to these unless there is an environment
  • where concerns, doubts and needs can be expressed;
  • of willingness to listen and discuss people's concerns and needs
  • of goodwill and courage to read the signs of the times and interpret them in the light of the Gospel
  • where there is a fundamental desire to take the message of Jesus Christ into the twenty-first century.
Through offering support We Are Church in the UK does its best to encourage Catholics
  • to identify with a parish,
  • be loyal to their Bishop
  • take part in discussion and action to build a vibrant, empathetic and compassionate community of faith.
We hear Jesus say,

"Come to me all you who labour and are overburdened and I will give you rest. Shoulder my yoke and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. Yes, my yoke is easy and my burden light." (Matt 11:28-30)
